‘Tis the season to be feasting, and if we’re feasting, let’s feast local! This issue of Eat Like a Local is here to tell you where you’ll find South Australia on a plate these holidays. And if you are feasting at home, we’ve got more good news. Happy ‘feastive’ season to one and all from Eat Local SA.

Summer. It ain’t over til it’s over. The kids might be back at school but those warm weekends are still happening. We recommend seeing out the season by venturing to the Yorke Peninsula for some fresh sea air and maybe a brownie, nipping over to Norwood for food + art, heading to the hills for a relaxed meal, or whipping up a super fresh kingfish ceviche with our feature recipe from Dennis Leslie.

Eat Like a Local is back in the Barossa this month. Why? Because as soon as the nights start to cool and those autumnal tones appear, our thoughts turn to relaxing with friends over a dish or two just bursting with rich, full flavor. Don’t miss the autumn flavours from one of South Australia’s favourite playgrounds.

Recipes

Talinga Grove share their adaptation of Patrice’ Newell’s basic biscotti recipe from her book Tree to Table by adding a good dose of local produce including their own Extra Virgin Olive Oil plus Laucke Flour and Fryar’s Kangaroo Island free range eggs.

This recipe by Barossa Valley Cheese Co partners their light and milky halloumi with chicken and the sweet summer flavours of peach and basil. Pop these on a skewer and head right outside to the barbie.

At Hahndorf’s Haus Café + Bar + Kitchen, they source vegetables from their friends at Hahndorf Fruit and Veg Market. There are talented fruit and vegetable growers all through the Adelaide Hills and local farmers markets too. Check them out for more inspiration to eat locally and seasonally.
